What to expect

This four-hour night walk begins as you meet with your Athenian nightlife expert at the Syntagma Metro Station, where you will have the chance to admire the Hellenic Parliament with the Presidential Guard, the Evzones, an elite unit of the Greek army that guards the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, in front of the Hellenic Parliament building and the Presidential Mansion.

After a bit you will enter into the first bar of the night, situated in one of the wealthiest and upmarket districts of the capital, the Kolonaki district (literally meaning "little column"). Located on the southern slopes of Lycabettus hill, Kolonaki is the leading shopping area of Athens and home to the city's greatest concentration of trendy fashion boutiques and many upscale cafés, bars and restaurants.

After you enjoyed your first drink of the night, you will find yourself walking by some of the most beautiful buildings in Athens, like the National Library of Greece, the National and Kapodistrian University and the Academy of Athens. After visiting at least two more bars for drinks, including one of the top 10 bars in the world and another one which prides itself on having one of the greatest varieties of Greek drinks in the country, your walk will take you to the famous Monastiraki District, where you can find the perfect place to honor one of the most cherished habits in Greece, which is to grab a late-night bite.

The tour will then end at the Monastiraki Metro Station, under the beautiful Acropolis.

Private Athens Tour with Acropolis and Plaka

The ancient Greeks left behind a treasure trove of monuments, statues and artefacts in Athens. And on this private tour, you'll take in all the top spots with an expert guide. Exclusively for you and your party, you'll tour highlights including the Roman Agora, Hadrian's Library, the Plaka neighbourhood and the UNESCO-listed Acropolis. Vassiliki, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘Acropolis means “high city” and it usually refers to any settlement built on top of a hill. You'll find many towns in Greece that have an acropolis, but the Acropolis of Athens is certainly the most famous.'You'll start with a guided tour of the Acropolis – with skip-the-line tickets, there'll be no waiting around. Soak up wow-factor views over Athens at the Areopagus – a rocky hill where legend has it the Greek gods would hold court. Let your guide bring history to life as you marvel at ancient landmarks like the Roman Agora, the Theatre of Dionysus and the still-standing columns of the Asklepieion and Parthenon. Then, it's on to the city's Instagram-worthy old quarter, Plaka – the capital's most appealing and historic neighbourhood. Always thronged with a mix of locals and visitors, the pedestrianised lanes are brimming with tavernas whose tables spill onto the streets. Vassiliki says, ‘Athenians call this area “the neighbourhood of the Gods,' as it has been inhabited since the days of ancient Greece. In fact, excavations show that the street layout has barely changed since antiquity.'
